Littlej8 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Has everyone who applied to UNC recieved some sort of notification (either acceptance or rejection)? Though I assume that I am rejected, I'd like to have something official! I have not heard from UNC either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tokenaustralian Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 To those who have been accepted to Georgetown - what does your application status say when you log in? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pingsmile Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Congrats man, so happy for you! Do you mind if I ask subfield and how you were informed? Thanks! I received an email from the Program Director with the offer letter attached around 7pm on Friday. and yesterday, a very nice email from a professor on the admission committee to congratulate me.

certaincertainties Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 well, at least we know now that all the Yale posts are fake (or three people got the exact same "informal email from POI," which I suppose could happen). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eponine997 Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 well, at least we know now that all the Yale posts are fake (or three people got the exact same "informal email from POI," which I suppose could happen). Interesting... though apparently no one shares that twisted sense of humor about Harvard or Princeton... There was that handful on the 19th. Perhaps they decentralize by subfield? Last year it looks like their offers were a few days a part, though it also looks like they did interviews last year... torture continues, someone please shoot me in the face...

CGMJ Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 (edited) Morning! Another week, another spreadsheet update: http://wikisend.com/download/418806/Polisci PhD admit data.xlsx Hopefully this week will reduce our limbo! It seems as though we're likely to see: - Accepts/waitlists from Harvard & Princeton - More accepts from Georgetown, possibly a few more from Yale and UCLA - Rejections from Berkeley, Columbia, Duke, NYU Edited February 25, 2013 by CGMJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlinoncampus Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Congrats upam! Did you by any chance get a sense of if they are going to let all their admits know via interspersed e-mails or follow their previous MO of notifying most through the website?

CGMJ Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Two admits to Georgetown? Okay, my heart beating about a million beats per minute now. Agreed, especially because Gtown order of admits is probably telling since their funding is so limited! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hashtag Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Okay, would it be rude/weird to ask a department if they one is not offered admission to their PhD program, if they are then considered for admission to an MA program? I know a lot of places normally do this and they specify it on the application, but the website does not mention it. Also, is it okay to ask that if I haven't been actually been rejected yet? I'm feeling pessimistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TakeMyCoffeeBlack Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Two admits to Georgetown? Okay, my heart beating about a million beats per minute now. I know the MAGES admissions committee was meeting last Friday (with decisions expected this week), so final decisions were probably also being made by the political science department at the same time. *fingers crossed* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smh I've never heard of "rejected off waitlist." Weird. Sorry. Edit: By that I mean, I didn't realize we could lose after being allowed to hang on a hook.
